The Bambach Saddle Seat can be fitted with a carpeted ply board. This is recommended for children whose feet cannot reach the ground, and is also helpful for children with special needs.

Through research and case studies with disabled children, this carpeted ply board base has been designed to ideally suit the needs of small children. It provides support for the feet and is a safety option for those with reduced co-ordination. The sitter can use the Bambach Saddle Seat without the risk of their legs being caught up in the five star bases, which would be under the ply board base.

This base also stops them from moving themselves around by pushing on the floor with their feet. This base is used mostly by small or disabled children and therefore the very lowest gas stem is usually recommended for this seat.
